Cigar storage in the humidor

Cigar connoisseurs often refer to themselves as aficionados (Spanish: lovers). A genuine aficionado only has to touch a cigar to know if it has been correctly stored. The Liebherr humidor offers an ideal storage environment for premium cigars, allowing perfect maturation over prolonged periods. High quality touch electronics in conjunction with moisture sensors ensure that the desired temperature and humidity levels are always precisely maintained.

High quality storage for fine cigars

Premium cigars are top-quality, natural products that are hand-made in a lengthy process that involves strict quality controls. To retain their natural flavor, they must be properly stored. Cigars that have been stored correctly have a soft, elastic outer wrapper; they are pleasantly heavy to hold; and they have a succulent aroma typical of their region of origin. Liebherr's ZKes 453 humidor offers cigar aficionados the perfect microclimate with customizable settings for storing their treasured cigars.

A balanced mix of temperature and humidity is key to achieving optimum taste – after all, premium cigars are delicate natural products. To constantly retain their quality, they need similar conditions to those found in the tropical regions from which tobacco comes – the Caribbean, South America and South-East Asia. In the Liebherr humidor, cigars can be stored and matured for long periods in the perfect environment. Innovative climate technology precisely maintains the required temperature and high humidity levels at all times.

Once harvested, the tobacco is processed in a lengthy procedure under strictly monitored conditions. It is dried, fermented, handpicked and made into premium branded cigars by experienced cigar rollers. Professional testers check every single cigar for factors such as weight and strength. A team of tasters acts as the final control body. This high product quality remains optimally protected in the humidor thanks to a combination of modern touch electronic controls and reliable humidity sensors.

If cigars are stored at too low a humidity level, they dry out and lose their refined taste. If the humidity is too high, mould can form on the precious tobacco leaves. The ideal humidity level for storing cigars is between 68 and 75 percent. The sooner the cigars are to be smoked, the closer to 68 percent the humidity should be. In the Liebherr humidor, three separately managed control circuits with four fans create the perfect storage environment for your individual needs.

The stainless steel outer housing and glass door convey real elegance. The interior has two storage shelves made from Spanish cedar wood, traditionally used to make cigar boxes because of its balanced moisture absorbing and relinquishing properties. Collectors can use the humidor to store both individual cigars and boxes of them. Two freely removable cedar wood boxes present the cigars beautifully. With a net capacity of 39 liters, the humidor offers plenty of space for both short term and long term storage.

As a natural product, cigars need a hygienically clean environment. The materials used for the humidor’s interior offer optimum security in this respect. All wooden parts can be removed and individually cleaned. The plastic in the interior and in the water reservoir is easy to clean. An activated charcoal filter keeps the interior air free from odors. Furthermore, the temperature and humidity indicators can be read from outside the appliance so that the door does not need to be opened to check the environment, which reduces the risk of spores and microorganisms entering the appliance.
